That is exactly what I thought back then, so I took a stick instead.

I would not touch these. Can be poisonous!
Kya
Thanks for your suggestion Viv!

If you open the Wiki link Kya in the I.D suggestion and then scroll down you will find a photo on the right hand side of the page with a link to Scyphozoa. Looks very similar to your spotting but it is ONLY a suggestion : )
Kya
Probably. I tried to turn it upside down, but in vain.

could be a jelly fish with the tentacles enclosed inside the cap.
Kya
I assume, I found this on the beach not far from my resort hotel, I took a piece of wood and stroke on it and the stick bounced back like it was made of plastic.
